SOS Xtreme Comfort Announces Leadership Transition
Jeffrey Spiegel Takes Helm as New President
Meredith Spiegel Entrusted as new Chief Operations Officer
June 25, 2024 - Tuxedo, NY – SOS Xtreme Comfort, a cornerstone of the home comfort sector, is proud to announce a significant change in leadership. After decades of dedicated service, Robert Spiegel is retiring, passing the ownership torch to his younger brother, Jeffrey Spiegel. This transition marks a new chapter in the company’s storied history.
Founded in 1934 by Murray Spiegel during the Great Depression, SOS Xtreme Comfort has stood as a testament to resilience and dedication, built upon the principles of hard work, integrity, and a commitment to community. The company has been in the Spiegel name for four generations, with ownership passing from Murray to his sons George and Richard, and then to Robert, who has now entrusted the company’s future to Jeffrey.
As Robert steps into retirement with plans to take up golf for the very first time, Jeffrey, along with his three sons—Buddy, James, and Michael—and his wife Meredith, is poised to continue the family legacy. This marks the fourth generation of Spiegels to lead the company, a testament to the enduring strength and dedication of the family.
“I am incredibly grateful for the years of service and dedication Robert has given to SOS Xtreme Comfort,” said Jeffrey Spiegel. “We are excited to continue building on his legacy, and I am confident that with the support of my family, we will carry the company to new heights.”
SOS Xtreme Comfort remains committed to its founding values, prioritizing excellence, integrity, and community involvement. The company’s certified technicians are dedicated to providing exceptional service, whether it’s a routine tune-up or a complex repair, ensuring optimal heating and cooling solutions for both residential and business customers. Our dedicated propane and heating oil delivery drivers work tirelessly from the early morning to the dark winter evenings, ensuring our customers’ comfort and safety. Alongside them, our friendly and professional customer service agents and office staff play a crucial role in maintaining and strengthening the company’s operations and customer relationships.
This change in leadership also extends to SOS’s Commercial Fuels Division, providing heating oil, propane, gasoline, and on and off-road diesel. Clients include construction companies, landscaping businesses, trucking firms, and farms. This division is supported by a great sales and support team dedicated to meeting the unique needs of our commercial customers with the same commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction.
“Our core values—excellence, honesty, continuous learning, personal growth, integrity, accountability, professionalism, environmental stewardship, and workplace safety—remain at the heart of everything we do,” Jeffrey added. “We are not just in the business of delivering comfort; we deliver peace of mind.”
As SOS Xtreme Comfort celebrates 90 years of industry experience, the company remains steadfast in its mission to provide unparalleled service and support to its valued customers. The leadership transition is seen as a continuation of a legacy of resilience, dedication, and community-focused service.
